The week before it sinks some politician will publish a foolhardy plan to lift the city up above the waves using thousands of drones.

Is there any chance at all that as soon as Chinese return, Indians will be relegated to most despised category?

ahem... https://twitter.com/ThaiPressCo/status/1442325122317111298?s=20

Pretty sure lots of experts were warning back in spring that in this La Nina year this would be a strong possibility. Thai fortune tellers/government advisers seem to have ignored this information for the further benefit of Thailand

I shouldn't laugh, but this only goes to show, the numbers in Thailand are not very reliable to say the least

The number will more likely be between 100-200,000 people in the high season for this year. 25x less than they predict

The Chinese Propaganda Machine whirs into action...

All makes sense. Thailand is obviously doing much better than the UK financially even in the midst of a pandemic which has dropped revenues 80-90%

I'll try to come in Q1 next year and I promise to spend at least 10,000 baht

"Honest Anutin" is not going to stick....

What an abysmal failure. It should have been so simple, oldest to youngest.

Hurrah! Thailand has proven that lockdowns do slow down rate of infection. So what next? The instant rules are relaxed infections will start climbing and there is not a thing anyone can do about it

The insanity that is trying to beat mother nature with more concrete

It won't take anywhere near that long. 2030-35

How can it cost 4x the price of a new Aventador in Europe?

Fairs fair. What's good enough for Thailand...

Excess mortality figures for August should be worth a look, figures for June and July were 3-5x higher than official figures for covid deaths

Thailand will have another million cases before this is over no matter what they try

"Hello General.... It doesn't work no, but we can give you a 30% discount on another 10 million doses"

And what will they do if they find 25 -50,000 infected people?

That's the problem though isn't it? No booster, no travel. At one point does it stop?

Vaccine passport? Countries are now setting expiry dates even for those. Austria and Croatia will not accept passports older than 210 days. If Thailand did same that would mean neither myself nor my Thai wife could visit after January 29th 2022. Like I said earlier this nonsense will never stop

By the time Thailand is ready to open up even those fully vaccinated will still have to quarantine. Western countries vaccinated early on and everyone will be outside the "vaccinated in past 6 months" window stipulation for getting a stupid certificate. It will never end

Why do they still build these concrete type roads?

I'm sure Thai migrant workers get treated better than any migrant workers in Thailand. Two faced hypocrisy at it's best
